Smallest eigenvalue of certain PD matrix decreases under sparse perturbation

Let $\omega_1<\dots<\omega_n\in\mathbb{R}$. Then, define $G\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$ such that $G_{k\ell}=\frac{1}{1-i(\omega_\ell-\omega_k)}$. For example, if $n=3$ we obtain $$ G=\begin{...

The eigenstructure of the symmetric tridiagonal matrix whose entries are $a_{kk}=\cos\frac{k\pi}{n+1}$ and $$a_{1,2}=\cdots=a_{n-1,n}=1$$

Suppose that $A=(a_{kl})_{k,l=1}^n$ is a symmetric tri-diagonal matix in $M_n(\mathbb{R})$ whose diagonal entries are $a_{kk}=\cos\frac{k\pi}{n+1}$ and $$a_{1,2}=\cdots=a_{n-1,n}=1$$ Any approach to ...

Eigenvectors of the symmetric tridiagonal matrices whose entries above the diagonal are all the same

Let us consider the real symmetric tridiagonal matrix $T=(t_{kl})$ in $M_n(\mathbb{R})$ with $$t_{1,2}=t_{2,3}=\cdots=t_{n-1,n}=1$$ How can we compute the eigenvectors of $T$?
